What bars are they referring to? Trying to think of where ELSE a bar could be placed, as it seems like most of the real estate along Perkins is already taken.

No clue but they are really starting to annoy me. Especially for a neighborhood that has some abysmal properties.

I can't think of any place along that way that would be good to convert into a bar

They probably call themselves small government types too.

The Time Out Lounge folks want to re-open in a spot on Valley Street. Guess that's what the folks are upset about.

They're bitching about the possibility of rezoning the property at the corner of Valley St. & Perkins for the Time Out Lounge. I see no issue with it but a lot of people are up in arms about it

It's about stopping CAB2 zoning in the area. Time Out Lounge is the bar in question.

Don't let the signs fool you. Many in Southdowns and surrounding areas are not opposed at all.

I live in the area, haven't heard jack about this and am totally in support of opening that bar. So ease off on lumping all SouthDowns residents into the "Old FuddyDuddy" category please.

Maybe the residents just don't want a piece of shite bar like Time out Lounge to open there.
